網球壇終於迎來改朝換代之時。隨着祖高域退場後,勞力士代言人卡洛斯 · 艾加拿(Carlos Alcaraz)以巔峰表現奪得其首座羅蘭加洛斯法國網球公開賽(Roland-Garros)單打冠軍,成為網壇史上首位在三種不同場地奪得個人首三大滿貫 (Grand Slam®)冠軍的男子選手。

在座無虛席的菲利普沙特里耶球場(Court Philippe-Chatrier),艾加拿經過4 小時19 分鐘的激烈鏖戰,憑藉6-3、2-6、5-7、6-1、6-2 的比分,最終捧起火槍手盃 (Musketeers’trophy)。儘管在抵達巴黎時略顯準備不足,這位21歲的網球新星在兩週賽事中克服重重障礙,展現出精妙非凡的網球技巧,最終躋身於一眾曾在此泥地巔峰賽事奪冠的西班牙球員中。在羅蘭 · 加洛斯法國網球公開賽頒獎儀式上,網球界傳奇選手比約 · 波格(Björn Borg)重返其半世紀前首次贏得大滿貫頭銜的這座球場,向同為勞力士代言人的卡洛斯 · 艾加拿授予火槍手盃。艾加拿在奪冠後表示:「我非常感激我出色的團隊和身邊支持我的人們。每一位團隊成員為我竭盡全力,幫助我在球手道路和人生道路上不斷進步,不斷成長。從第一場比賽到今天,我們並肩度過了 一段非凡的旅程。我現在戴著的勞力士Daytona(迪通拿)腕錶,也是我去年贏得溫布頓冠軍獎盃的見證者。它陪伴我度過了許多重要時刻,承載了我網球生涯中的諸多寶貴回憶。」此外,勞力士代言人兼女子網球世界排名榜首的波蘭球手伊加 · 絲維雅迪克(Iga Świątek)實現羅蘭加洛斯法國網球公開賽(Roland-Garros)女子單打三連冠,摘得職業生涯中第四座法網冠軍獎盃。自2019 年,勞力士正式成為羅蘭加洛斯法國網球公開賽的大會指定計時,與四大滿貫賽事建立全方位合作。
